Meet the Team
I am an experienced Nurse Practitioner with a diverse background in primary care, mental health, and providing comprehensive care to children, adolescents, and adults. I bring a compassionate, evidence-informed approach to clinical practice, recognizing that every individual has unique needs, experiences, and strengths.
I am particularly passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and adults with mental health and neurodevelopmental diagnoses, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, and anxiety. I recognize the importance of comprehensive assessment, early identification, individualized care, and a strengths-based approach. I am committed to working collaboratively with individuals and families to navigate challenges, build on their strengths, and improve overall well-being and quality of life.
In addition to my clinical practice, I holds a senior healthcare leadership position, where I oversee clinical services, support interdisciplinary teams, and advance initiatives focused on improving access to high-quality, patient-centered care.
I am also an Adjunct Lecturer with the University of Toronto's Department of Family and Community Medicine and contributes to continuing professional development through teaching and curriculum development for healthcare professionals.
I holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN), a Master of Nursing (MN), and an Executive MBA from the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management. I am also pursuing the Certified Health Executive (CHE) designation through the Canadian College of Health Leaders. My educational background
combines a strong foundation in psychology and behavioural sciences with advanced clinical training, healthcare leadership, and a commitment to lifelong learning.
My approach to care emphasizes comprehensive assessment, collaboration, and shared decision-making. I am committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive, and non-judgmental environment where individuals of all ages and their families feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their healthcare journey.
